Why Boil Eggshells?

An Eco-Friendly Gesture to Reduce Waste

Eggshell reuse is an eco-friendly approach that reduces waste and repurposes what we usually discard without thought.

The boiling water from eggshells can be used for gentle makeup removal. After boiling 2 to 3 clean eggshells in 1 liter of water for 10 minutes, let it cool and filter. Use 50 to 100 ml of this warm water on a reusable cotton pad to remove facial impurities before your regular cleanser.

This water is not a replacement for typical makeup removers but can be a gentle first step, especially for skin tone, while consuming a daily waste product.
